ALPHASEAPILOT MFC
NB: Whilst all efforts have been made to ensure the safety and reliability of the
ALPHASEAPILOT Autopilot system, it should be noted that the installation of any
such system, should never be permitted to detract from the adequate provision
of sound and continuous watch keeping duties.
IMPORTANT APPLICATION & OPERATING NOTE:-
The ALPHASEAPILOT Autopilot System is Type Approved and Wheelmarked compliant
with IMO A342 (ix) as amended by MSC 64/67 Annexe 3 which is applicable to vessels up
to 30 knots (non High Speed Craft).
It is also Type Approved for high Speed Craft (HSC) compliant with ISO 16329 to provide
an overall speed application to 70 knots.
Since the Control parameters – conventional displacement vessels versus High Speed
Craft – are very different, it is essential that the correct vessel type (DISP or HSC) is
correctly entered in the Autopilot SET UP Menu during installation and calibration (see
Section 2.16)
